Sketchbook Update

So I have been drawing a lot lately and decided that getting a another moleskine is dumb because there is so much blank paper laying around that needs to be drawn on. I have been really inspired by Brad Holland lately too. If you search for some videos on him there are some pretty good interviews. I feel like I need so try and stupify my work. Like Peter Rampson taught me too Keep It Simple Stupid. Brad Holland definitely keeps his works nice and simple and I really love it. And I love his pen and ink so thats where I got the inspiration on the drawings with the words. I finished up this semester with a 3.7 GPA which suprised me but definitely made me feel a little better and I am almost moving to San Marcos .. Super hyped! Thats all for now.

Couple illustrations from The Collegian

Article about Police Training

Article about Government Censorship

Article about Bullying

Here are some illustrations I did for The collegian for the past three weeks. They post the articles on the Collegian website which can be found here under the Editorial link....http://collegian.tccd.edu/.... They have some pretty good articles to read, so check it out if you got some time. On another note I got accepted to Texas State for the Spring semester so I will be moving down to San Marcos around December or January. Pretty excited about that cause I need some change. But anywho.. schools going good this semester grade wise and things are lookin up. Keep it real while keepin' it safe.

Computer Ill assignment

Here is an assignment I just finished up for my computer illustration class. The assignment was to create a brochure for "The China Town Festival". The assignment was to learn the bezier pen tool in Illustrator CS4. I definitely learned it well because rendering the lions took a long time because its all lines. I am enjoying the class so far and this was supposed to be one of the more disliked assignments so I hope there is more good to come. Til next time..
